Kapoor Galleries · A Harivamsa folio
A Riverbank
Resplendent
Coral, lavender, and saffron gather in sumptuous folds beside a luminous reach of water. Crowns and turbans rest upon the bank; turning profiles and answering hands give the bathing company its quiet rhythm. Linger with a single Harivamsa folio, attributed to Purkhu, through the complete painting, intimate details, and a scholarly study.
A world gathered by the water
The eloquence
of a gesture.
Follow the landscape of garments toward Krishna, Arjuna, and Narada, where the abundance of the gathering resolves into the intimacy of conversation. Move from the sweep of the river to a listening face, an answering hand, a fold of cloth.
